As you may know, several area districts were affected by "swatting" calls yesterday when police departments received false reports of active shooters on school campuses, leading schools to go into lockdown. We want to assure families that we take the safety of our schools seriously, as well as our students' emotional health. We have a crisis plan in place, and we communicate with law enforcement regularly to keep our students safe and respond appropriately to threats.
